Motorola is the inly Handset manufacturer that has been given the mist Goigke resources to domjnate the Android market, yet, its deal making and brand positioning under the shadow of Verizon has made Motorola one of the biggest disappointments after all of the hoopla over the Razr(excellent phone) and Atrix. poor execution on the Xoom, and restricting the best brands to a globe limiting CDMA carrier also contribute to Motorola’s impotency in the market.

If China refused, I expected Google to proceed anyway and accept Motorola Mobility without their China operations.

Somewhere in China is a Google employee who just earned a very large bonus. He made it rain.

Sun, 20 May 2012 01:10:00 +0000http://www.slashgear.com/?p=229023#comment-211912Unfortunately its happening in more and more countries. The world cannot sustain constant growth. Where will it end. Maybe in the future, only a handful of companies will rule the world and we the public will have no control over our lives and be seen as no more than an inconvenience to the power hungry. Our money will be controlled by big business and we’ll be relegated to be working drones for them to keep amassing wealth and they will take away any rights we have left. The future doesn’t look too bright for our great great grand kids

USA has lost its way.

Here’s just hoping the timeframe mandated by the Chinese won’t amount to a reason for Google to reconsider their stance once it runs out.

Sat, 19 May 2012 22:36:00 +0000http://www.slashgear.com/?p=229023#comment-211899Since Google wants Android to be open and free the requirement isn’t going to impact them at all.

Hooray! This means that Android can’t be killed. If every other OEM drops Android because of other strategic concerns, they’ll have to pitch their alternative against an installed base of 400 million devices.

Now it’s time for GooMoto to go after HP and Dell. Innovate or perish!
